} T 1 he p<m ertid paradox of water. At once,it's a playfiil puddle, splashing delighttidly around a child's bright-colored boot. Yet again,it can deluge a farmer's tender crops with unrelenting downpours. Uncontrolled, raging water can cut away at the hardest rock;its floods can devastate a family's home and put a company out of business. Water is nature's most powertid element. Contained,it can be systematically released to generate electricity. Controlled in a heat pump pipeline, water can transfer heat from the ground and warm a family etliciently and economically through winter's most bitter temperatures. Corn licit Power felt the effects of water in 1993 - the wettest year ever recorded in Iowa. Precipitation statewide averaged 48.13 inches, almost 15 inches or 45 percent abuse normal. Excesshe water both hurt and helped the cooperative. Throughout Corn llelt's system, flooded fields produced less corn to drv, but more basements had sump l pumps and dehumidifiers running. Some substations flooded, but because of heavy rains, Alissouri Riser hydroelectric dams refilled afier six consecutive years of drought, increasing availability of hydropower. Itoth essential to life and powertid enough to take it away, water was indeed the storv of 1993. Its paradoxical etrects will be remembered for many years to come. 1 Boone Valley Electric Cooperative 2 Butler County REC \\ 3 Cdhoun County Electric Cooperative Assoc.
